What Item Upgrade Experts Want You To Be Educated
Throne and Liberty Gear Upgrades
Upgrades to gear increase its base stats, and sometimes enhances its extras. The worth of these upgrades is determined by their tiers, requirements and the number of random augmentations used.
For example, the elite racial shield Razortail is often upgraded to enhance its lightning absorb capability in PvP or to provide additional defenses to missile-based builds in PvM. This makes it more tradeable over the original version that is not upgraded.
Reroll Tokens
Reroll tokens can be used to reroll an acquired item like an armor, weapon or ring. The item is replaced with an identical item however with different bonuses. Reroll tokens can be a cost-effective way to upgrade gear. They don't maintain the original item's level and any wasted resources aren't rewarded.
The surviving players can acquire reroll tokens in several ways, including the Mistery Box and rare drops from skulled creatures. They can be found in chests and crates or purchased from the store at a cost of 150k each. Reroll tokens can be used to alter the attributes of an item of equipment for example, increasing the damage it can cause.
Players can roll their equipment into three categories: physical power, magic power, and health. Upgrades to physical power increase the damage caused by weapons and melee attack while upgrades to spell power boost mage attacks and rings. Health upgrades give the player an additional level of health.
Three types of rerolls tokens are available: upgrade, rare and legendary. Each upgrade takes an item to a higher quality and requires an upgraded reroll token in order to create it. Upgrades require a common item. Rare upgrades require an Best item upgrade that is exclusive or legendary. Legendary upgrades require three legendary pieces.
The marker that rerolls, unlike markers or tokens placed on action areas, stays on the spot until the next success is being rerolled. This helps to prevent the waste of upgrades.
Blueprints are envelopes that show up at the start of every Preparation phase. They can be opened with Interact by grasping them. When they are opened, they display an explanation and icon for the Ingredient or Appliance. Blueprints can be exchanged for new appliance or ingredient in the restaurant's shop for a small amount of coins.
This means that you can move blueprints between the Staple Pool (which is the default pool) and the Non-staple Pool during a run. This affects the blueprints that the restaurant's shop sells to reroll and which are available in the non-droppable Pool.
Growthstones
In Throne and Liberty, growth stones can be used to upgrade weapons, armor and other accessories. These stones are special stones that increase the value of an item by increasing its stats or characteristics. These items can be obtained by visiting Equipment Enchanting NPCs in the major towns. They can also purchase them from Contract Coin Merchants for a cost. Moreover, players can obtain these stones by completing daily contracts.
To upgrade equipment players must first locate the item and then click the "level up button". The screen will show a summary of the item's current level and what it will become when it is upgraded. It will also display the amount of Growth Stones required to do so. The number of Growth Stones required to upgrade the gear will depend on its rarity. Most often rare (blue) weapons require more than one green Growth Stone to reach their next level, whereas rare armor requires only one green or blue Growth Stone.
After deciding what to upgrade, players must then select the number of green Growth Stones they wish to use and pay the appropriate cost. Once the player has met the requirements, they can hit the upgrade button and apply the Growth Stones. The item will be upgraded in level by a specific percentage. The process of upgrading can last anywhere from seconds to several minutes, based on the rarity of the item.
The upgrade process is risk-free and does not impact the longevity of the item. This makes it an excellent way for players to get an advantage in combat without straining their accounts. Additionally players can transfer experience and advancement of an upgraded item to a new item by clicking the "transfer" tab.
The process of acquiring Growth Stones in Throne and Liberty can be a challenge for novice players. There are a variety of ways to acquire them. You can complete contracts and purchase them from Contract Coin Merchants, defeat Abyssal Contracts, collect them from Equipment Stone Seal Book or get them from reward chests during the Ancient Arena Season. In addition players can also cut down the higher-level Growth Stones to create multiple lower-level ones.
Leveling
Leveling is an option that lets you increase the stats of weapons and armor. You can also upgrade trinkets and helms. It is achieved by combining an item with upgrade components at the Upgrade Station and paying a fee in Happy Stars or Happy Tickets. The process will use up the upgrade materials and grant the item an increased level, which gives the item a boost in that particular area. The process will continue until the item reaches its maximum level.
Items with upgraded base stats will display a blue icon in their slot. Upgrade components, unlike enchantments cannot be applied to more than one item at a time. Each upgrade component requires a certain number of items and a minimum level of equipment.
The Upgrade Station is divided into two slots. On the left side, players can choose to add items to be upgraded. On the right side, a preview shows what the gear will look like at its next level. When a player has enough materials, pressing the yellow arrow will start the upgrade process.
A piece of gear can be upgraded up to five times. Each time it is upgraded the base stats of the item upgrader kit will be increased by an amount of. The maximum level for an item is 19.
Once an item reaches its maximum level and is no longer upgraded, it does not have the option to upgrade. When a piece of equipment reaches a specific upgrade track (e.g. Veteran or Explorer) upgrades to that track will come with discounts.
Upgrade components are a kind of equipment that can be slotted into weapons, armor trinkets and gathering tools to give an attribute bonus or extra effect when the equipment is in use. They can be bought from vendors, looted or obtained through questing or exchanged between players. Upgrade components can be replaced with new ones, but doing so will damage the previous upgrade, with the exception of for glyphs which can be removed and replaced at will.
Requirements
The upgrades to items allow players the ability to boost certain attributes of weapons and armor that they currently have equipped. The requirements to upgrade an item upgrades vary depending on its type, but you'll typically need Dilithium and an amount of Upgrade Tokens.
Upgrades to items can be used to make set pieces and weapons for additional effects or to increase the level of the item. These upgrades can be obtained from many sources, including crafting, buying at the Trading Post, karma vendors or looting from raids and bosses. Once an upgrade component is placed into an object, it isn't able to be removed or replaced. However it is possible to swap glyphs freely.
The upgrade of an item can boost its Mark Level and/or Rarity. In addition, some upgrade components include additional modifiers that can increase the stats of an item.
The helm upgrade "Foundation of the Sun" For instance, increases the base defense and provides an additional 20% chance to block. The dps "Wildfire", however increases damage from weapons.
Certain items are better off being upgraded not so much for their improved stats, but because it allows players to gain the most value from a perfect roll on the item. For instance, a flawlessly rolled 200/6 504 armor set piece is highly valued in the melee PvP community and can be worth 20-50x more than the non-upp'd version.
If you choose an upgrade component to be inserted into an item the game will display an open window that displays the necessary requirements. The game will show the required requirements when you select an upgrade component to slot into an item.
Once you've met the required requirements for an upgrade the game will put the item in your inventory, and the progress bar will update to indicate how close to completing it. You can also check the status of an upgrade by going to any item upgrader NPC.
